We had the best time at this cottage. Very clean, close to the beach. It’s very cozy and we enjoyed it very much. One recommendation would be to have a throw blanket on the couch at night. I would highly recommend this property. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Absolutely beautiful and true to the advertisement on Vrbo

We thoroughly enjoy our stay! We booked the cottage for our daughters college graduation. The cottage was spotless and exactly how pictured. The living room was very comfortable and spacious. The bedrooms were cozy and beds were extremely comfortable. We stayed off season so I would recommend bringing along your own blankets as extra warmth! The kitchen and bathroom were clean and cute. I highly recommend this cottage and hope to return in the future.

Cozy, comfortable beach cottage

Long time friends living on separate continents, we got together for a 4 day stay at the beach. The cottage is cozy, comfortable and well appointed. We loved the brightness and the elegant simplicity. A 5 minute walk to a beautiful clean beach and a short commute to Portland for fun. We’re already thinking about when we can return.Highly recommend!

A perfect girls getaway!

The cottage is super cute and cozy! The neighborhood is a DREAM come true!!! We enjoyed our morning and evening walks to the beach - which is absolutely breathtaking by the way. The house is fully stocked with everything you need. Beds are comfy…..we could have slept for days! We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect location! And our host was amazing as well! She responded to messages immediately and was so helpful. I highly recommend!

Family getaway

This little house is even better than the pictures. Every thought to detail and comfort has been achieved. High end finishes and extremely comfy beds and sheets make this the perfect getaway. It’s a two min walk to the beach which we loved!! When we needed something for the cottage the owner quickly brought it by. We would most definitely stay here again however we would choose earlier in the season as there was nothing open and we found we had to drive a lot to get a coffee or go to restaurants. That was our bad though. Race Point cottage is gorgeous!! Thank you Elizabeth!! We had a wonderful time!!!

Comfortable, airy, uncluttered cottage. Well appointed. No less than 3 eating places within a 5 minute walk in the neighborhood. Quiet all around.Best beach access is by a sandy path a block down from the cottage. There’s a bench mid-path on which to pause enjoy the pines, birds and dunes before reaching the expansive beach of Pine Point. Three mile beach walk from there to OOB Pier.Hostess impeccable. Prompt response to any question, happy to help and share this property. Would definitely go back.If you’re looking for a getaway where you can notch down, book it!Thanks Elizabeth!

We had a Great stay, My only suggestion would be to add a osculating fan to each of the bedrooms. While the AC unit is great, it does not seem to move air into the bedrooms. A fan would go a long way to help those that are warm since there are not overhead fans in the rooms.
